Australia Post and New Zealand Post have joined forces to commemorate the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) in a joint stamp issue.

The ANZAC stamp issue, available since 1 April, honours those who served during the First World War and the close relationship enjoyed between Australia and New Zealand, deepened since the First World War.

Australia Post Managing Director and Group CEO, Ahmed Fahour, said “we are proud to release a joint stamp issue with New Zealand Post that recognises those who served their nation, many of whom made the ultimate sacrifice”.

Sonia Young of the Australia Post Design Studio designed the ANZAC stamp issue, which features silhouetted soldiers and the floral emblems of each country against a backdrop of Anzac Cove.
